Technology has revolutionized business administration, facilitating process optimization, decision making and competitiveness in a globalized environment. The automation of administrative tasks, the use of management software and digital platforms have allowed us to improve operational efficiency, reduce costs and strengthen productivity. Tools such as enterprise resource planning systems, customer relationship management systems and accounting software have been key in administrative modernization. This study analyzed the impact of technology on the main elements of administration: planning, organization, direction and control. The methodology used was a bibliographic review. The results showed that access to real-time data facilitates strategic decision making, optimizes human talent management and improves organizational structuring. Furthermore, digitalization boosts competitiveness by allowing adaptation to changing environments and improving relationships with customers and suppliers. However, the implementation of technology in administrative management also presents challenges, such as resistance to change, the need for investment in digital infrastructure and staff training. Despite these challenges, the strategic adoption of technological tools is essential to ensure business sustainability in the future. In conclusion, technology plays an essential role in optimizing administrative management. Its proper integration allows companies to improve their operational efficiency, adapt to market changes and strengthen their competitiveness on a global level.
